WINDS OF ANGELS

Gentle swings the breeze-swayed trees, yet something lurks beyond the breeze.Upon strong winds God's angels ride; somewhere out there, there're souls that hide behind a tear and desperate prayer, and blow, ye wind, to carry them there, those angels whom God's granted to deliver solace overdue.Soon the wind will calm; I know, God's angels have been on the go... and somewhere there's a soul at rest from burden of some life's cruel test.Returns the breeze; feel its caress, another sign my God will bless.Know man will ne'er control God's wind, to tell it blow or make it end; God is in control, my friend.

About me

Monty Wheeler, author of The Many Shades of Dark, his debut collection of formal verse that comes to the shelves via Winter Goose Publishing in March of 2013, considers himself naught but a little old feller living out his days in the foothills of the Ozark Mountains. With his work in meter and rhyme, he strives to keep the art of formal verse alive. His days, when not at the job that pays the bills, are spent in writing, fishing, hunting, and his newly-acquired want of gardening. You can find him on Twitter as @bumfuzzled2004 and on Facebook
